 9/11 The air around me is dark and thick. Sirens are blaring And people are screaming. In the distance is a shrieking sound… The metal tower as it falls to the ground. The screaming continues along with s few groans Of the people in the rubble and the ones that they love. As the smoke fades Terror strikes faces One tower is down and there goes the other. Time passes so slowly and everyone is silent. Staring at the sky in disbelief. Where the twin towers once were is nothing but smoke What are the chances it’ll happen again..?

On Both Sides of the Wall

"We had endured humiliation and hunger. Why should we now lose hope?"

In my opinion, this is a powerful quote. It is so true too. They had already went through a lot and had hope the whole time. There is no point in losing their hope because they hear things are getting worse.

I do agree that this is a powerful quote. People were trying to stay positive and optimistic through their tribulations in the ghettos. The last part of the quote is a sad forshadowing because much more torture was to come for the Jews and they did not know what else the Germans were planning on doing. As the Holocaust painfully dragged on almost all people did lose hope, however, those who survived held onto what hope they had left. Very good quote choice emily! -Breton C

Its amazing how they could still remain optimistic even after they had lost so much. It really shows how some of them made it through the Holocaust in the midst of absolutely terrible situations. Sam H

"From the depths of the mirror, a corpse gazed back at me. The look in his eyes, as they stared into mine, has never left me."

To me this is a very important quote. It is a strong two sentences. I'm more into the gory dark types of poetry and I've actually written something similar to that. __**

When you see photos of Elie Wiesel today, you can see in the pain and suffering in eyes years after the event. How could what he witnessed ever leave him? M. Fegan

__Nuremberg__ I thought it was a very good movie. I was annoyed with the fact that the one guy killed himself. To me that is an easy way out of a punishment. It was easy to tell that the commanding officer guy was mad. He slammed the door. Adding the afair was unnecessary. The movies was supposed to be about the trials so the kiss scene was not needed. I do however, feel sort of bad for the one guy who got 20 years. I liked him in a way. He was man enough to admit what he did and show remorse. I agree that the love scene was really not relevant. I would have rather seen more about the accused. M. Fegan
